UNSOLVED
disabling call waiting...
I have call waiting on my GTE phone service. I have checked the feature out with GTE and it seems to be working fine.
My problem:
1. when i don't use the *70 cancel call waiting, I log onto dellnet just fine, however, if anyone calls I get bumped off.
2. when i use the *70 disable feature of dellnet, all i get from the speakers is the tones of the number dialing, a dial tone, after 15 seconds a busy signal and no connection.
What should i do next? I've changed the settings both in the dial up connection in the modem of the control panel as well as the dellnet connection settings...
please advise:

thank you-

You might also want to check with your company if you actually have cancel call waiting.
Services with call waiting does not automatically give you cancel call waiting, depending on what type of service you have.- Don't cancel the service. When and if you use *70 with your regular phone there is an automatic pause. But with a modem there would be no pause with just *70. So the comma tells the modem to pause. That is what the comma means and only needs to be used with modem dialing.

No spaces. Example:
*70,755-7555
